I'm kind of astounded. Provorov. Sanhiem.Ghost. Morin.


Why exactly does this team need to move a key piece of its dominant power play, a 1st round pick(likely in the top 20) and a high end Defensive prospect for Kevin Shattenkirk? Great player sure. But I'd rather see a cup run than the something shiny du jour.

Isn't the Cup shiny though?

I agree. Our d corps in 4 years could be among the best in the league. Why trade for defense help in the present? We're not going anywhere til the prospect D step in and contribute.

Because, in four years, Streit and Schultz will be gone. Would be nice to have some veteran leadership to help guide all these young guys

Trade Luke Shenn to Buffalo, for Marcus Foligno.

Philly has bodies on the back end, and could afford to flip one for a forward. And they'd give themselves a little more cap flexibility



Obviously Flyers fans will love the style of Foligno (whose upside is Lucic-esque). But he's still developing that game and won't reach his full potential for a couple years yet (as we're just now seeing his older bro breakout).


For Buffalo, Schenn would fill the hole of former LH D-man; Zadorov, who was just traded away in the Ryan O'Riley deal.

If somebody offered me a 26 year old first pairing d-man, I'd listen to what they had in mind before I'd decide what to do.

So they trade a guy who could be lucic type for A #5 dman does that make sense on their end ?

Rather would just stand pat.

The season to make big moves is next year, predominantly in FA with a much more promising class.

Love Giordano, and was looking to make a run at him hopefully, but the demands seem to be insane.
- flyer_nutter

I still look to move a defenseman but not in a rush

I'd take him but not for Simmonds.

I'm worried that Shattenkirk seems good because he plays on a team that is strong defensively.

(frank)ing christ, can we give the kid some time to play before we start making judgements and sarcastic, holier than thou comments on his future......let me ask you a question, since hes the guy you randomly picked as the "one who wont make it from the group", how many times have you actually seen him play?
